The most serious thinking about how to treat the children and families in our program
happens mostly on Friday mornings. Within the confines of the University of Hawaii’s
Center for Cognitive Behavior Therapy, we provide mental health services to children
between the ages of 6 and 18, mostly referred from Hawaii public schools and the
Department of Health. A handful of those served are self-referred families from around
the Pacific region who have sought specialty treatment for complex anxiety problems.

One of the main tasks in the psychological individuation process is the reconciliation of opposites, especially the opposition between consciousness and the unconscious. Dreams create a bridge between these two worlds. Jung sees the dream as the steady endeavor of the unconscious to create the best possible equilibrium in the psyche. Dreams are a means to establish a homeostatic balance, or at least to show the dreamer what would be necessary to achieve this balance. Psychotherapists of many different schools use dreams in individual therapy, but very few use them in counseling couples.

It is becoming increasingly clear that signals generated in tumor microenvi-ronments are crucial to tumor cell behavior, such as survival, progression
and metastasis. The establishment of these malignant behaviors requires
that tumor cells acquire novel adhesion and migration properties to detach
from their original sites and to localize to distant organs.

Abnormality means behavior, thinking processes, or feelings deemed undesirable
and therefore subject to control or change. Differing points of view about theoretical
orientation, tolerance for deviance, where to draw the line between normal and
abnormal, and the use of labeling lead to differences in the criteria used for
definitions. Important criteria include subjective discomfort, disability or inefficiency,
and deviance, especially bizarre or reality-distorting deviance.

Children with disabilities are at risk for experiencing problems in many aspects
of their lives, including becoming independent in daily living skills, meeting
academic expectations, learning to communicate, maintaining emotional and
behavioral regulation, adapting to the social demands of society, and developing
motor proficiency.

The increasing number of chromosomal rearrangements involving the
humanMLLgene, in combination with differences in clinical behavior and
outcome for MLL-rearranged leukemia patients, makes it necessary to
reflect on the cancer mechanism and to discuss potential therapeutic strate-gies. To date, 64 different translocations have been identified at the
molecular level.

Nonetheless, data is data, and whilst the interpretation may be suspect (which can
happen with even the best controlled studies), the data is the most valuable asset in a
research paper. Of course insight that either consolidates or furthers our
understanding is vital, but without data it can be nothing more than an armchair idea.
Many journals require the highest levels of scientific rigour, which may make some
research inaccessible - really a form of scientific censorship.

Our model might be a useful instrument for both academics and practitioners who want to better understand consumer
behavior; it may also serve as a basis to successfully create, market and monitor luxury brands or products in a cross-
cultural context. Even if the world of luxury products is not homogeneous, we believe that the underlying consumer
motives and desires transcend national boundaries in a structure that derives from the individual‘s situation and the luxury
value dimensions.

From 1999–2003, FRONTIERS implemented a Global Agenda program of operations research
(OR) projects to address the reproductive health (RH) needs of adolescents in four countries—
Bangladesh, Kenya, Mexico, and Senegal. The project was implemented in urban areas of Saint-
Louis and Louga, in northwestern Senegal, and was called Improving the Reproductive Health of
Youth in Senegal.
